Ada joins David to discuss her new book, Becoming a Woman and Mother in Greco-Roman Egypt. She chats about attitudes towards menstruation, marriage, and unwanted children, and the changes that occurred in these (or didn't) from Pharonic to Greco-Roman Egypt. Ada also reflects on how excavating at Fayum in Egypt led her to focus on this topic (despite the scorpions), the importance of interdisciplinary approaches, and how she was pleasantly surprised by the massive reaction when she set up the Facebook group 'Women in Antiquity'.Ada Nifosi is a Lecturer in Ancient History at the University of Kent: https://www.kent.ac.uk/secl/classics/staff/nifosi.htmlThe Women in Antiquity Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/womeninantiquitynetwork/ Hosted on Acast.
